Psychic Protection 101: Entities and Psychic Contamination
By Leslee Jo Klinsky
Oct 4, 2007

Much confusion surrounds the topics of psychic contamination and entities, and there are as many ideas about these phenomena as there are people to discuss them. Dialogue abounds in New Age and metaphysical circles about psychic protection and the multitudinous forces beyond the earthly realm that can affect our lives in disconcerting ways. And while the opinions are as varied as the forces and forms discussed, all those participating in this dialog agree that there are disturbing and powerful forces beyond the human that often permeate lives and homes.

It is not always easy to find fitting, easy, or inexpensive methods to clear the way when we believe in these mysterious forces. We see numbers of books, articles, and websites about psychic contaminants, but we rarely receive guidance about how to protect ourselves or our homes from the forces discussed without expensive outside intervention. We hear about everything from discarnate beings and thoughtforms, to hooks and attachments, to psychic debris and imprints; but we are advised to hire somebody well versed in these matters to assess our situations and ultimately help us. “Experts” advise us of the dire consequences of handling psychic contaminants ourselves, but the fact is that outside of violent poltergeist activity or severe cases of possession, these forces are everywhere always, easily removable, and easy to acquire again.

It is the intent of this article to give you an idea about negative forces in place at this time, and to provide the ammunition you need to protect yourself, your home, and your loved ones without outside intervention. Like bacteria, these forces are everywhere, and once you know what you are dealing with, the effects they have on your life become negligible and easy to control.

What is an Entity?

For the purposes of this article, an entity is any psychic contaminant—anything perceived as outside of you that feeds off your energy or emotions. It can be a thoughtform that has taken on a life of its own, a discarnate energy pattern with malicious or non-malicious intent, a hook or attachment from one or more persons, residue from a spell, or a discarnate being that feeds off the energy or thoughts of its host.

If you have ever become angry, vengeful, agitated, or depressed for no apparent reason, it is possible that the unseen forces of one or more entities have affected you adversely. Most people assume that everything they think and feel is their own, coming from their own conscious or subconscious mind, but the fact is that entities can change one’s thoughts, moods, feelings, and disposition. The propagation of negative emotions becomes their nourishment, their fuel. Different negative emotions attract a range of entities, while love turns them off. Anger, fear, depression, rage, sarcasm, or jealousy—the bottom feeders of the emotional range—are especially attractive to entities.

An entity can jump from person to person or from apparently nowhere and is very easy to attract in these accelerated times. You are susceptible to entity contamination when you are with people, out shopping, at the movies, or at a restaurant. They are attracted to less-than-positive thoughts, so they can be attracted as you react to the news on television or read a book or article about a negative subject. The great news is that entities can be controlled and expelled easily and effectively by just about anyone.

What are Signs/Symptoms of Entity Contamination?

Many problems can be caused by entity contamination, including depression, anxiety, fear, addictions, suicidal tendencies, phobias, relationship difficulties, bad health, rage, hyperactivity, crabbiness, money problems, and blocks to personal and spiritual growth. This does not mean that every instance of problem is entity related, so one must use discernment in assessing any situation. Here are common symptoms of entity contamination:

* Sudden depression, rage, edginess, anger, sadness, or anxiety
* Feeling suddenly dizzy or off-balance
* Sleeplessness
* Repetitive or weird thoughts
* Personality changes
* Chronic or sudden health concerns
* Manic depression
* Outbursts
* Addictions
* Relationship problems
* Multiple personalities

How Can I Control and Eliminate Entities?

There are three easy and effective ways to control and eliminate entities. With a little research, you can find out why these methods work, but for our purposes, you just need to know that they do work and are worth trying.

1. Fill a bathtub with water and add one medium handful of all-natural sea salt (available at health food stores, Wal-Mart, etc.). Take a normal bath, making sure that you dunk fully at least once. This will remove entity contaminants from your aura and other energetic fields.

2. Smudge yourself and your space with white sage (available in bulk at herb stores, metaphysical shops, or health establishments). Place some loose white sage in a safe metal container or incense burner and light it. (I do not recommend glass ashtrays or dishes, as I have seen some blow up from intense heat.) Fan the sage smoke over your body and walk it around your house or apartment in a counter-clockwise fashion. You may feel a sudden shift as an entity is expelled into the smoke. Smudging sticks provide an alternative to loose leaf sage that works as well.

3. Entities respond well to invocations that ask them to leave or to transmute into light. Though it is hard to believe sometimes, they do respect free will. Ground yourself as much as possible before reciting one, and if you believe in Masters, guides, or angels, ask for their assistance in your clearing work. Here is a simple example that can be repeated as often as desired:

"Father/Mother/God/Spirit/Source, I ask that all souls, energy patterns, and entities be sent on their spiritual evolution for the highest good and mutual benefit of everyone concerned."

There is one more method beyond the three above that I recommend for severe psychic contamination. It is called Flaming, and I have seen it work in the most overwhelming situations. The steps to do it follow, but please read the instructions in their entirety before trying it:

1. Ground yourself as much as possible and envision your body and aura filled with golden Light and a thin shield of Violet Flame beyond that. Intend that you are to clear that which is not in the highest and best good of all.

2. Put a small handful of Epsom salts in the center of a sturdy pie tin or fry pan.

3. Pour a small amount of 91% isopropyl (rubbing) alcohol on top of the Epsom salts, alcohol being no more than about 1/4 of the amount of salts.

4. Put the pie tin (or frying pan) in a kitchen sink or bathtub, somewhere that nothing can catch fire.

5. Light the alcohol/salt mixture and stand back. Darker energies or those most powerful will produce higher and hotter flames, regardless of the amount of salts or alcohol used. Normally, the flame does not get very high or hot, but I have seen one climb to the ceiling, completely immerse the pan in flame, and turn it red hot in less than a second.

6. When the flame dies down, you can carry the pan through your home to clear any residual psychic contaminants. This step is optional.

Regardless of whether you believe in entities and psychic contamination or not, the above methods indisputably remove negative influences and energies of all kinds from people and spaces and cannot do any harm. In these times, it is so important for people to remain clear and to know that their feelings are their own. These methods provide a way to know that that is the case.
